    Where is this? What is the point in guilt in your employees to work in longer hours when you can just contract them to work longer hours perfectly legally?

      I think the benefits to the company of “unlimited time off” are

      • they don’t have to pay out unused time off if the person leaves
      • they don’t have to keep track of it as closely
      • sometimes people take less time off, so they get more working hours out of people
      • it looks good on paper to applicants

        Many companies don’t do that even with fixed time off: see every company I ever worked at.

          Apparently this varies by state! https://www.paycor.com/resource-center/articles/pto-payout-laws-by-state/

            Interesting! I grew up in WA and currently live in UT, and neither require it, though my dad had his paid out when he retired (company policy).

      In a third world, not EU or US, surely. The contracts and obligations are treated differently there
